Thank you for the Data. I prefer to use Data when feasible so thats why i posted tv market but the other poster said its about “college football tv market” but he didnt provide any data that tells us how Miami fares. He keeps saying “realistically” but realistically is Miami is NOT going to the Big 12
Leave it to the ACC to entertain a notion that would ONLY benefit those in the equation with ZERO leverage- the 4 Pac Zero schools. It's almost like this is being looked at with the eyes of a basketball conference being controlled by clowns that have no business making the calls.
Having lived and worked in ATL for nearly 7 years, I can confirm this view. ATL is more a college football town, than a pro town. The hierarchy of teams is as follows:
You need a 75% vote of ACC members to add a new member. 15 voting members so to get 75% you need 12 votes to add. Four dissenting teams are sufficient to prevent the addition:
You have stated this twice now, where in the **** are you getting this $420 mil figure?

You may even put Auburn ahead of them as well.
Gotcha thank you. Though I don’t think this is coming from the guys on here who we know have actual insight and legit intel on this matter if I am correct? Hard to sometimes keep up with all the BS, and all the guys here who want crap on those providing what intel they have due to some inferiority complex not to mention the doom and gloom patrol who just want to be able to say “I told you thusly”
This is all 100% pure speculation regarding the 'theoretical $300M GOR buyback". The $120M exit fee is the actual number.
Wrong .. your are confusing POPULATION with TV sets. The DMA statistics are established based on the actual number of TV sets in a given market.
As a conference the ACC isn’t on their “deathbed”. There are schools that are put in a tough position due to the GOR with ESPN. But as conference, there is a reason they not looking to break out. With that said, i cant see anyone getting voted in if the GOR cant get adjusted as stated previously here.
There are SO MANY stats published you really need to read and interpret.
Make no mistake - if the conference is this far back in revenue agains the P2, they are on their deathbed
